Assuming a standard setup, the plugin should have a SQL directory 
with files in the form {$_DB_dbms}_install.php: one for each 
supported database. Looking at some random plugins this is not always 
the case. mySql only plugins tend to just have install.php and some 
plugins have the form {$_DB_dbms}_install_{$pi_version}.php. So 
currently it is inexact. But since the repository changes a bunch of 
other things, there's no reason not to have a standard filename 
format for database support purposes.
